RA is your immune system attacking your joints, and something set it off.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the lining of the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and over time, joint damage. Unlike osteoarthritis, which results from wear and tear, RA is systemic and immune-driven.
A root cause approach asks what is provoking the immune system. Chronic infection, gut permeability, and environmental toxins are common contributors that conventional care often leaves unexamined.
